About This Access Site
Jacks Bay Landing provides access to the White River, a major headwater stream in Arkansas. The boat ramp sits along the peaceful, winding section of the river between Locks 2 and 3. With a total length over 1,000 miles and an average flow over 34,000 cubic feet per second, the White River is a formidable waterway suitable for kayaking, canoeing, and powerboating.

The boat ramp is located in Tichnor, Arkansas, about 50 miles south of Stuttgart. It offers a convenient launch point to explore this scenic stretch of the river. Nearby recreational areas include the Arkansas River's Wilbur D. Mills Pool and Norrell Pool, providing additional boating and fishing opportunities. Paddlers should be prepared for the White River's strong current and variable water levels. Review all safety considerations before launching, as conditions can change quickly on this large, powerful river.
